#GBBO

Have you watched the Great British Bake Off (aka #GBBO aka Great British Baking Show in the good ol’ US of A)?!?! If you haven’t, stop what you’re doing, buy a loaf of crusty french bread and binge watch it NOW. This beautiful cooking competition is on Netflix or PBS and it’s nothing like the shows we have in the US. You’ll be hooked. Promise.

Seriously, I’ve been obsessed and binge watched like 3 seasons and the Masterclasses already… In the “Masterclass”, judges Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry teach you how to make the dishes the contestants are challenged with! It’s a great way to get out of your comfort zone. I’ve already learned to bake ciabatta, make my own filo pastry, and make a Croatian Povitica!

Recently I’ve also been loving the beautiful recipes and photography in Yotam Ottolenghi’s book “Sweet“. I’m dying to test out some of his recipes so check out my Instagram for pictures of how they turn out!

I’ve also added a few new cookbooks to my library in the past month from some of my favorite chefs and bloggers. I’m loving all the creative inspiration vibes I’m getting!

I’ve been inspired with all the holidays coming up, of course. I’m making some yummy fall dishes, Oktoberfest brews, spooky Halloween concoctions, and much more! Make sure you keep an eye out on the blog for more recipes!
